In the shadow of the mystical Forest of Astram lies Cedorin, a village clinging to tradition and wary of the magic that hums just beyond its borders. Nimrielle, a doll-like construct created by the reclusive hedge witch Yeva, was never meant to venture beyond the forest. Yet, with Yeva's passing, Nimrielle finds herself thrust into a role she never prepared for: the healer and caretaker of both the magical wilderness and the superstitious villagers who fear her very existence. With a heart as curious as it is gentle, Nimrielle navigates the delicate balance between her responsibilities as guardian of Astram and her desire to be accepted by the people of Cedorin. Small, everyday challenges—tending to ailing crops, mending fences, and soothing tempers—become her stepping stones toward building fragile trust. But beneath the surface, a growing disturbance ripples through the magical fabric of the forest, threatening both its harmony and the lives of those who depend on it. Guided by cryptic warnings from a mysterious woodsman, Nimrielle must unravel the source of the chaos while proving to herself—and the skeptical village—that she is more than just a creation. In a world where magic is as unpredictable as a roll of the dice, Nimrielle’s journey is one of quiet strength, tender connections, and the courage to forge her own path.
